Smoking habits may affect respiratory function. Spirometry is a test that measures how an individual inhales or exhales volumes of air as a function of time, and is a test of general respiratory health.

The Respiratory System Findings (RE)) domain is based on the Findings Observation class. The RE is a body system-based morphology/physiology domain. This findings domain is used to repesent  physiological and morphological findings related to the respiratory system, including the organs that are involved in breathing such as the nose, throat, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs.
